The exact exchange between Chiefs coach Andy Reid and Travis Kelce may never be fully known, but the star tight end did address it after Kansas City captured its second consecutive Super Bowl title, Christian Arnold of The New York Post reports.
Kelce was asked about the tense conversation that caught the attention of football fans everywhere as he was seen yelling at Reid and appeared to bump him during the second quarter of the Chiefs’ 25-22 win at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday.
“I’m gonna keep it between us,” Kelce said during an interview on ESPN’s “NFL Primetime” after the Super Bowl 2024 win.
“I was just telling him how much I love him,” Kelce added.
While the scene seemed out of the ordinary for the Chiefs and angered some of those watching, there didn’t appear to be any animosity between Reid and Kelce after it.
The Athletic reported that Kelce later went up to Reid and hugged him and the Chiefs coach patted him on the back.
“He caught me when I wasn’t looking,” Reid said with a laugh during an interview on ESPN. “He didn’t know I was going to go that far. Then he came over and gave me a hug and said ‘Sorry about that.’ But he just wants to be on the field and he wants to play. There’s nobody I get better than I get him.
“He’s a competitive kid and he loves to play and he makes me feel young, but my balance is terrible.”
